Chapter 172

Chapter 172

I couldn't speed up because I couldn't make the sound of horseshoe loud.

"Whoa."

It was the most nervous and impatient moment.

I glanced around the still-quiet mansion.

It is likely that Viese and Seral, who will notice it right away, will come out with a loud shout.

"It's okay, Tia."

I don't know if he has noticed my anxiety.

Perez soothed me with a low voice.

The distance of whispering in my ears was so close that I could feel uncomfortable.

Thanks to him, I was able to calm myself down.

I shouldn't look nervous in front of Larane.

When I reached the main gate of the mansion.

"Nobody's here."

Grandfather kept his promise.

The main gate, which the Knights of Lombardy and the soldiers were supposed to guard strictly, was empty with no one.

"The gate opened a little, too."

Even the unlocked iron gate was open enough to fit in and out.

"By any chance..."

The only person that can order the Knights of Lombardy and soldiers to vacate the post.

It's just my grandfather.

Larane knew it well, so she looked at me with astonishment.

"I'm not the only one who wants you to be happy."

In fact, that's why I asked the twins too.

I could've moved in advance and prepared a horse by myself.

Even if it was unlucky to have parents like Seral and Viese, I wanted her to know that Lombardy has people who support and love her.

I don't want Larane to reminisce sadly until the day she left Lombardy.

"Everyone..."

Larane didn't say anything after that.

I didn't talk to her on purpose either.

It was because I thought she needed time to organize her thoughts alone.

Fortunately, by the time we get out of the mansion and reach our destination, the plains.

Larane was smiling refreshingly as she drove her horse.

"Larane!"

Avinox, who was hovering nervously near the carriage he had prepared, came running as soon as he saw Larane.

"Sir Avinox!"

Half jumped from the horse, Larane fell into Avinox's arms.

The couple, who had been reunited with difficulty, hugged each other so tightly.

"Take this."

I approached those two people and brought out an envelope.

"This is a boarding pass."

"A boarding pass...?"

"The two of you are going to Cheshire as soon as possible from now on. Go and take the Eastern Cruise ship of Pellet Corporation."

"Eastern... Cruise? Ah!"

Larane opened the envelope, looked at the boarding pass, and opened her eyes wide.

If you take the cruise, you can arrive in the East in a week.

It's much safer and faster than running away by land.

"Once you two arrive at Cheshire port, my father will be waiting. I told him beforehand."

I stood in front of Larane.

And at that moment, I hugged her skinny body tightly.

"Go to the East and live a happy life, Larane. You can forget about Lombardy a little bit."

"Tia..."

"But that doesn't mean you have to overdo it. If you're having a hard time, feel free to write to me for help. Okay?"

"Th, thank you. Thank you very much, Tia."

In the end, Larane burst into tears.

I took out a handkerchief, pressed it down on Larane's eyes, and said.

"And when the date of the wedding is set, send someone to the Pellet Corporation. I'll let you have a big wedding, Larane, for everyone to envy you."

"To Pellet... Corporation?"

Larane's eyes, who was briefly looking at the boarding pass, were shaken.

It's as if she has realized something.

"By any chance..."

I said with a big smile at Larane, who asked carefully.

"Larane and Avinox's rooms are specially reserved for the best suites on the cruise."

Surprised for a moment.

Larane hugged me tightly and cried.

"Thank you, thank you, Tia."

"That's enough for my cousin. And Sir Avinox."

Avinox replied a bit nervously to my sharp eyes.

"Yes, Lady Florentia."

"If you make our Larane cry. The cruise to the East and the trade ship, I'm going to cut it all off."

"Well, don't worry!"

I glanced at Avinox give him a warning until the end, then gently pushed Larane's back towards the carriage.

"Go on. You don't have much time because you have to arrive by the date on the boarding pass."

"Thank you, Lady Florentia, and the Prince."

Avinox bowed to Perez and got on the carriage first.

"Well, then, I'm off."1

Larane said, clenching my sleeve.

"I'll write to you as soon as I arrive at Luman. And His Highness the Prince."

Larane suddenly looked back at Perez and said.

"Please take good care of Tia."1

"Larane, what are you talking about? Perez, why are you nodding again!"+

Instead of answering, Larane smiled oddly and climbed onto the carriage.

It was a very light step.

The carriage wheels began to roll slowly with a clatter of doors closing.

Tak tak tak!

At the sound of the horseshoe, the appearance of the carriage gradually faded away.

Watching from behind, it was only me and Perez on the dark plains.

Whoosh!

The wind blew hard.
